*Help* Screw in stabilizers not fitting in Dropshift V2 keyboard
I'm trying to build a mechanical keyboard with screw in stabilizers, I've build some mechanical keyboards with click-in stabilizers, never with screw in. Somehow one of the pins of the metal top-part collides with the screw in stabilizer of the numpad "enter key". I already tried grinding of a bit of the pin that collides with the stabilizer, but unfortunately I can't make it fit/close properly. You can see that the pin of the toppart leaves a mark on the bottompart of the stabilizer, see picture 2. What am I missing? Using Durock V2 in a Dropshift fullsize V2. See pictures below, thanks in advance!

The keyboard is currently a Pok3r plate and PCB with Cherry MX Clears in a silver MCK Aluminum Case, with Nuclear Data Keycaps. The first album shows the keycaps as they are now, with some Out of the Vault keycaps added as well as a vintage NOS Honeywell keycap I modded to fit Cherry switches.
In the (very) near future I'll be building up two 60% keyboards using parts from the LeandreN Round 4 group buy (plates and PCBs from GON) with 67g and 78g Zealio switches to replace the Pok3r plate/pcb/switches I'm currently using.
My best feeling set of keys are these. Thick PBT in Cherry Corp profile. PBT Keycap Set for Cherry MX based Leopold Keyboard / Blank Non-Printed / Navy http://www.ebay.com/itm/281664522419
I also want to try POM in Cherry profile, but that's probably never going to happen.
